IS THIS SCIENCE OR VOCATIONAL?
BOTH: There are 2 sets of standards from the State
of Michigan that programs have to meet HSCE for Biology CTE Standards
01.000 Agriculture, Agriculture Operations and Related Sciences

CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION
Teacher Vocational Certification Meet CTE Segments and Standards (which
includes having a student organization – FFA) Create Program Completers Have an Advisory Committee Meet Facility Requirements Have Work-based Learning (SAEs) TRAC Audits (Technical Review Assistance
and Compliance) State-Approved Programs are then eligible to
receive Federal Carl D. Perkins (Perkins Act) dollars and matching State funds

A COMPLETE AGRISCIENCE PROGRAM INVOLVES:
Classroom and Laboratory Students gain knowledge and skill
Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) Projects Students apply knowledge and skills to gain
experience Leadership through FFA
Students apply knowledge and skills to gain leadership skills

COMPLETERS / CONCENTRATORS
Concentrators are identified after they complete at least 7 segments with a grade of 2.0 or better. These students must complete the assessment at the time they exit the program.
Completer's are students that completes all 12 segments with a grade of 2.0 or better and take the technical skill assessment, if available. Students will receive an endorsement on their diploma. Bio-Botany Bio-Zoology
